MARINE CORPS AIR STATION CHERRY POINT, N.C. - Participate in the 2012 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show Scavenger Hunt “Discover” the Heritage, April 16-April 22, without leaving the comfort of your personal Facebook page.
This scavenger hunt will be conducted utilizing various Facebook pages ran by units of MCAS Cherry Point, 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, Marine Corps Community Services Cherry Point, other official military pages and air show performer pages.
The entire scavenger hunt will consist of seven clues that will drive scavengers to seven various Facebook pages. The first clue will be posted at www.facebook.com/TheAirShow at 9 a.m. on April 16.
This clue will point scavengers to another Facebook page where they will find a congratulatory message that reads
“Congratulations!!! You’ve solved the first clue of the 2012 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show Scavenger Hunt ‘Discover’ the Heritage. Don’t forget to leave a comment on this post to qualify you in the hunt. The next clue will appear on this page tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. EST.”
Each morning at 9 a.m. a new clue will be posted on the page the previous clue led participants to find. This cycle will continue until April 22 when the final clue is posted. All comments must be made to the congratulatory post of the final clue by 11:59 p.m. April 22.
April 23 all the comments will be analyzed to determine first, second and third place. The winner will be the first person to not only solve the final clue, but must also have solved every clue during the hunt.
The first, second and third place scavengers will be featured on the air show Facebook page as the cover photo, along with a brief introduction post on the timeline as well.
In addition, the first place winner will receive an official air show T-shirt, hat, poster, meeting with various performers and preferred seating in the Terrace Chalet for the winner and a guest. Second and third place will not go empty handed, each will receive various air show gear and additional prizes as well.
Rules for the game, along with a few hints, will be posted to www.facebook.com/TheAirShow throughout the week of April 9-13 to help future scavengers get an idea of where these clues may lead them.
This is the first time Facebook has been used by MCAS Cherry Point to conduct a scavenger hunt of any kind. The goal is to increase participant awareness of Marine Corps aviation as the air station prepares to “Celebrate the Heritage” through our air show May 4-6. This heritage includes a celebration of the centennial Marine Corps aviation, the 70th anniversary of MCAS Cherry Point and our multi-cultural heritage.
